Virtual Tour App (VTA) creates a HD/HDR 360x360 interactive virtual tour for Austin landmark Mozart’s Coffee Roasters and Coffee House.

“Virtual Tour App is cutting edge,” says Jack Ranstrom, Mozart’s General Manager "because the nature of our store is primarily visual, I thought it made sense. It gives an added layer of cool factor to the website.”

Mark Gipson and Virtual Tour App (VTA) begins production on a virtual tour for Austin landmark Mozart’s Coffee Roasters and Coffee House. Mozart’s sits on Lake Austin and is known for the beautiful lake and sunset views from its two lake side patios as well as its bakery and signature coffees.

The virtual tour will give Mozart’s the capability to embed video of live music performances and other events held at the coffee house. The tour will also integrate e-commerce for the worldwide sale of Mozart’s Rainforest Alliance Certified, USDA organic coffees roasted on site in their German made Provat L12 copper roaster.

“It’s cutting edge,” Mozart’s General Manager Jack Ranstrom said of VTA’s virtual tour technology, “because the nature of our store is primarily visual, I thought it made sense. It gives an added layer of cool factor to the website.”
